Query on Snappy algorithm.. #73

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi all,

Sorry for posting my query here,

I need to back one million small files ranging from 5kb to 1MB . I follow the 
steps below,

1. Read files in 7200 bytes.
2. Compress it.
3. And send to server.

I m trying Snappy algorithm for compression. Can i get fixed length of 
bytes(say 1.5MB) as a compressed output each time . Using Zlib's dictionary i 
was able to attain that. But Zlib seems to be slower , so i opted for snappy 
algorithm. How can i use the dictionary concept in snappy algorithm 
effectively. ?? 

Thanks

./Shiva
